Cilantro, Coriander, the seeds, the leaves, I love it all. To me it tastes fresh and green. To others it tastes like soap. Here is the recipe for a perennial favorite of all of my friends.
Cilantro Ginger Sauce
1 bunch fresh Cilantro
2 cloves garlic
2 inch piece of fresh ginger
juice of 1 lemon
1/4 extra virgin olive oil
salt
Roughly chop the cilantro, garlic and ginger. Put into a blender or food processor. Add the lemon juice and some salt. Blend slowly adding in the olive oil until you achieve a smooth texture. Do not over blend. You don't want to emulsify the oil. Taste and add more salt to taste. This will keep for about a week and is excellent with anything from fish to grilled chicken to eggs.
